The KVM Switch allows you to access multiple computers from one 
keyboard, mouse and monitor.  There is no interface card or 
software to configure.   Installation is as easy as connecting cables 
between the KVM Switch and your computers.  Operation is as 
simple as pressing push button, entering hot-key command and 
navigating through the user-friendly on-screen menu (available on 
models with OSD support).  Depending on the model you have, it 
switches up to 4 (KNV104), 8 (KNV108) or 16 (KNV116D) 
IBM-compatible computers.    The KVM Switch is independent of the 
computer operating system. 

 

 
The advanced multi-access KVM Switches enable you to control 
multiple computers from one out of two locations, remote or local 
with two keyboards, mice and monitors.  KNV2108D controls 8 
computers and KNV2116D controls 16 computers.   

 
 

 

 

 

For KVM Switches with built-in OSD control, you can name your 
computers, switch to a computer from a list, configure settings with 
easy-to-use menus, view the name of the selected computer 
on-screen with programmable time interval.  The OSD menu 
displays the system status throughout operation.
